No, no I don't. Our planet as physical entity is actually quite large, and the life on the surface barely puts a scratch on it. ^_^ Really, if you took a *billiard ball*, like what you play pool with, and magnified it to the size of the earth, it would have higher "mountains" and deeper "valleys" than we do.

*lol* But that isn't what you're asking is it? ^_^

Well....I don't think life for us humans is going to end in the next 50 years either. I think it would take at least *that long* for any single part of the ecosystem to fail and become utterly sterile, never mind the whole thing.

But....what I do see coming is change. Lots of it. What has me worried are:

--Threats to the ecosystem. Yes, it will take at least 50 years for any one part of it to fail completely, but we've *already* been ignoring global warming for nearly ten years now. Time's a-wasting. We need to act. We can act. We did act when the ozone layer got a hole in it, didn't we?

Ok then. The problem is solvable, but only if we stop with the denial business and actually *do something serious* to lower CO2 emissions from human sources.

--Threats to Western Civilization as we know it. Simply put....most of the Developed World, including the United States, is facing a corrosive effect on two fronts:

1) Big Business is playing a *shell game* with their globalization, stealing jobs from rich nations to give them to poor ones--without the labor rights, workplace safety or environmental protections the work had previously. Let's not kid ourselves here, the CEOs and One Percenters are not playing Robin Hood with this. They are engaged in a Chase to the Bottom that is going to drive wages for non-corporate, working people into an *east African* gutter. Basically, having a LOT of money isn't enough for these people.

They want it ALL. And they also want to cripple and bankrupt the government of *any* Developed World Nation that dares to say no to them.

2) And Organized Religion, or its more fundamentalist, fanatic arms, is also waging war against civilization, attacking sciences, women's rights, freedom of speech and rule of law wherever and whenever possible. And it isn't *just* one faith....everyone's guilty.

Christians are guilty. Muslims are guilty. Jews are guilty. Hindus are guilty. *Everybody* is letting their fanatics and nutjobs run wild and threaten people with a deliberately inflicted vision of armageddon.

This has to stop if Western Civilization is to survive the next 50 years. And finally....

--Threats to the human genome. From pollution, from nanotechnology, from diseases that become more and more resistant to anti-biotic cures with each new generation.

The good news is....we are long overdue for some human evolution to take place. We spent much of our prehistory standing alongside *other* human species....so it won't kill us to have new humans show up.

The bad news is....there's no telling what's going to happen, and some of it might be bad. Mutations give rise to cancers too people.

So yeah....I'm worried about the fate of mankind over the next 50 years.

But I am pretty solidly sure we *will* be around to see that fate. Whether we like it or not.

Thanks for your time. ^_^
